TL;DR Summary
Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani has been ordered by a judge to immediately pay $148 million in damages to two former Georgia election workers who sued him for defamation.

The judge waived the usual 30-day period for payment, citing concerns that Giuliani may try to conceal his assets. The women have also filed another lawsuit against Giuliani, seeking a permanent ban on him speaking about them and accusing him of intentional infliction of emotional distress.
